2008 Kevin John Chardonnay (750ml) **New release - Limit 6 bottles per customer** #16189
This wine confirms that the combination of biodynamic viticulture and the use of carefully-developed vinification methods in the winery is enabling Cullen Wines to optimise the use of their Chardonnay fruit and thus produce in each vintage a wine of complexity and refinement from this Burgundian white grape variety. Although heavy rain, wind and hail during the growing season damaged the tips of the Chardonnay vines and led to a substantial reduction in yields, those unwanted weather events did not result in a decline in the quality of the fruit.
The Chardonnay fruit was picked at sugar levels ranging from 12˚ to 14˚ Baumé and was whole bunch pressed and matured in 100% new French oak for 18 months. All of the wine went through malolactic fermentation.
Colour Brilliant deep straw.
Bouquet Complex amalgam of lemon, melon, nectarine, burnt matches (from the indigenous yeasts) and attractive vanillin oak.
Palate Delicious combination of lemon, melon and nectarine flavours are perfectly complemented by just the right amount of background oak. The finish is long and characterised by good acidity.
Cellaring At least six years.
Food All crustacean dishes, veal, chicken and pasta.
